Apologies if this has been shown before but its the fist time Ive seen the incident.

Obviously Roland has acted naively but shocking behaviour from the German player IMO.

Nothing wrong with what the German did - it was the most genuinely imaginative piece of poker I can remember seeing - the bluff call.

Absolutely nothing wrong with what the German did - Roland was bang out of order for kicking up a fuss - he has played enough to know that all the needs to do is roll both cards - whats the point in flashing K high (or whatever it was  - not rewatched)

Ok Obv this has all been discussed before, and I am way behind as per......

In my view when RDW declares he has K High the other guy should concede the pot.

That aside as stated before RDW has made a schoolboy error and by the rules of the game loses the pot.

Tobias is trying to win the pot by tricking his opponent into thinking he has K-high beat, at showdown, after all action is completed. If that is not underhanded and against the spirit of fair play then what is?

Tobias sez he has 'a nice hand' to make Roland think that K high is good. He later explains he was referring to his nice busted draws. What a load of bllx. I think he is a liar.

Tobias called Roland, Roland needs to show his hand or muck. Tobias did nothing wrong.

That ^^

If Roland just flips his cards LIKE HE SHOULD, there would be no controversy.

I despise the dallying at showdown, whoever makes the call, the other player should just flip immediately ffs.

I 100% agree with this. I was delighted when the german guy referenced the fact that roland didn't want to showdown and therefore it was his own fault. The only way for RDW to lose that pot was FOR HIM to incorrectly act at showdown which he did. Cards speak, you've been called turn the face up..... or suck it up.

I'm all for turning your hand over at showdown but have some of you people honestly not watched this or something?

This is pure filth from the German, just absolutely disgusting.

Maybe the minor rubdown when he thinks Roland has mucked, but that's it. I don't get this bollocks about turning one card over or announcing what you have, turn 'em or muck'em.

Against a new player this isn't ok. But against someone whos name everyone knows, he shoulda learnt showdown rules by now.


I watched this and all I thought of the clip was that RDW was an idiot.
